Icon For Hire:
Icon For Hire is crazy. They plan on playing over 300 dates within the first year of their album release, launch a custom made clothing line, and literally save the world- all while holding true to the that morals that rarely exist in today’s music industry.
And if its presumed that this band’s hype stems merely from a box of hair dye and a flashy pair of high-tops, take another look. A quick listen to tracks off their highly anticipated debut album (Coming Summer 2011), one realizes this band can hold their own; creatively, musically, and professionally. And upon recent signing with Tooth and Nail Records, the band couldn’t be happier to have their work cut out for them. “It's a common misconception that once a band gets signed, the hard work is over. We're approaching this completely different. We realize that now is when the real work begins and we're up for the challenge. We're very driven people, and we're not gonna stop until we reach our goals."
Fulfilling goals isn’t anything new to the band. From winning an impressive list of battle of the bands and talent contests, to relentless touring and promotion, this band has proven their hard work ethic. For the past three years, they have put their heart and soul into every live performance as well as personal fan interaction, and know firsthand the powerful impact that music can have. “We started this thing because we didn’t like what we were seeing in our community-much less our culture- and wanted to do something about it. Inspiring people to be the change they want to see is a huge reason we get on stage every night.” And it looks like what they’re doing is working, as the band’s cult-like following grows stronger with every interaction.
“I know a lot of bands say this, but we have an amazing fan base. They drive us to want to be better, to reach farther, and find better ways to do what we’re doing. We make music for them-the day we forget why we’re doing this, that’s the day we call this quits.”
